Commerce Place

This is my go to subway for lunch. It’s fast. Lots of veggies add some bacon mmm noon hour heaven. Clean, efficient and handy. Easier than making my own lunch

Even though I do not work downtown I still have much love for Commerce Place. It’s a sparking clean beautifully maintained building with a nice mix of fast food place, high end clothing shops, and specialty stores. I drifted in here after visiting Swish Vintage to see what kinds of places I could get lunch at and since then I have never gone back to my prior lunch place in the City Center mall foodcourt as Commerce has far more tables. I think there are actually alot of qualities at Commerce that you can’t find at City Center including a diligent hard working security staff. I have never come in here and not come across at least one guard doing rounds, So whether your looking for a quick bite to eat, some fancy new clothes, or a really unique gift chances are you can find something at Commerce.

I have worked in buildings connected to Commerce Place through the indoor pedway and like walking through. The second floor food court is nice and bright with the windows looking out to 101 Street. There’s a CIBC ATM. The food places have changed over the years but they have a Subway, McDonald’s, Edo, and a pita place. The times I have looked for a table, I was also successful in finding one. They have tvs too, so I will sometimes get a tea and sit down and watch the news before I need to go to a meeting in the area.
Besides the food court, there is Sunterra. It can get busy during the lunch time and there’s some seating around. For breakfast, I used to stop by and get a bagel once a while. They still have good looking cakes and desserts but I haven’t had any to know if it’s as good as it looks! Sunterra has salad bar, hot foods, and sandwiches for lunch.
On the main floor of Commerce Place there’s jewelry, clothing, and salon/​spa. The Tim Hortons facing Jasper Ave is a hopping place for those who need a caffeine pick me up in the morning or mid afternoon. It’s great for free wifi too! The CIBC gets busy but they have 3 ATMs.
